7A engine

[spalls2]

Hi, im new to the audi s2 scene and need some advice. I am looking into buying an audi s2 quattro. The person selling this vehicle says that the engine is a 7A engine. What does this mean??? How much BHP would it have and would it have a turbo??


Many thanks for your help

A good 7A engined CQ is a fine car - just don't pay S2 prices for it !!!

i paid 550 for mine on a H with 6 mnths mot and 2 months tax

You could spend anywhere from £150 to £2000 depending on condition!

mine was 550 but it needed 4 tyres , tracking setting , abs sensor , cat and lamba sensor , drivers door mirror. but i work in a tyre and exhaust depot so i get things cheeper if i didnt i guess it would have cost me a hell of lot more, but i would have still bought the pearl beast

I love my 7A, with a well sorted suspension there a lot of fun on a twisty road. Plus you will never run out of handling or grip, the chassis can handle way more than the 7A can throw at it. Full throttle to the red line all the way.

I can understand why people would hate them, they dont have the get up and go excitement of an S2. And for daily driving the lack of low down torque can be a pain, though i personally find them easier to drive, you can cruise around shifting at 2200rpms and still leave the traffic behind. If outright performance and traffic light grand prix's are your thing you want an S2.

7A sounds great too
I payed £600 for mine which might have been a little to much given it condition. Its now cost me about £3.5k!!! :mischeif:

I paid £2000 for mine probably spent about the same on it "fixing it up", still doesnt have an MOT.

Still worth it though when you give it some stick, always puts a smile on my face.

Cheers people, i now know where i stand.

Payed more than a grand for mine, but it was in pretty good shape when I got it.


Wish i'd kept it that way
